Brown Sugar Pound Cake
Ingredients:
- 2 sticks of butter (1/2 lb/ 8 oz/ 227 g)
- 1/2 Cup shortening (4 oz)
- 5 eggs
- 3 1/3 Cups of dark brown sugar (24 oz)
- 3 1/2 Cups of flour
- 1 Cup of condensed, sweet milk (8 oz)
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Directions:
Make things easy on yourself by working with room-temperature ingredients: so leave out the eggs, milk, and butter for about 10-15 before getting started.
Cream butter and shortening until fluffy. Add sugar, one cup at a time, and cream thoroughly. Add eggs one at a time and cream thoroughly. Sift flour and baking powder together. Add it to the mix along with the milk and vanilla extract. Once everything is sufficiently mixed, pour it into a bundt pan (It's the best way to go.)
Bake at 325 degrees fahrenheit for 1 hour and 30 minutes, starting with a cool oven (don't preheat). Then check to see if the cake is ready by sticking a skewer or knife all the way through the middle. If it comes out doughy, bake for another 10-15 minutes.
